[Ads-l] covfefe kerfuffle

[Joel Berson]

This morning I tried to order a vente no-foam covfefe but the unsmiling, unreacting Starbucks order-taker ordered me a latte instead.  (Apparently it's not the NSWOTY -- the New Starbucks Word Of The Year.)


Later, I saw the author of the so-far-only-on-line NYTimes article must have plagiarized me, writing "They [late-night commenters] pledged to order a grande covfefe during their next Starbucks runs."

My executive order is yuuger.
